It was necessary to adjust the payment on 1 December 2012 to the person named under the 2012 Single Payment Scheme to take account of a Cross Compliance penalty and also arising from a reduction applied in respect of the Rural Environment Protection Scheme. In relation to the former, the applicant was advised of the reasons in my Department’s letter of 13th September 2012. However, in relation to the latter, a review was undertaken and it has been decided, on the basis of the receipt by my Department of a revised Rural Environment Protection Scheme plan, to refund the monies deducted under this heading. The refund will be made shortly.
